I really enjoy rereading some books. Especially if it’s been a long time since I read it and I don’t remember specifics about the book I love going back and reading it again. However, I know there are some people that are a once and done type of reader and that’s fine too.
So which are you. Only one good read or do you enjoy the occasionally reread? Vote in the poll and comment below whey you like rereading or not.
Results of last week’s poll:
YA or Adult Novels?
Although winning by only 10% more than just YA, both was the winner. I guess most of us just can’t choose.

I totally reread books – like Harry Potter for the 80 billionith time. LOL Or Twilight. I’m rereading both right now. I read HP out loud to my bf (can you believe he never read past book three ???)
Just Blood and Chocolate by Annette Curtis Klause it’s my favorite book and I’ve read it 16 times =]
Wow that’s impressive. I don’t think I’ve read any book that many times.
I love re-reading books! I really like to re-read the Jessica Darling series (Sloppy firsts, second comings…) after not reading it for a while and I find that I giggle like a schoolgirl like the first time I read it. I love the blog by the way, I am glad to read about someone else’s love of YA books 😀
Honestly it is hard to describe! It is a series of 5 books that are written diary style they kind of go from Jessica Darling being a sarcastic 16 year old up to her being a professional 25 year old. The common theme between them is a guy who is always coming and going from her life because they just are never in the same place at the same time (metaphorically and sometimes physically speaking).
Interesting. I might have to check it out. Thanks!

Lol. To be fair I also stopped on book four so …
But he loves the movies!!
I do too! I have the whole collection.
I reread books more so over summer and winter going back to the comfort they once provided me helps keep me sane during those times =]
Are there particular books you reread all the time? For me I love rereading The Selection series.

I’ve never read the Jessica Darling series. What’s it about? And thanks! I’m glad you like it. 🙂
